The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved an $11.3 million grant to improve urban infrastructure in Nuku’alofa, the capital of Tonga, as urbanization and population growth fuel demand for better infrastructure.
The Integrated Urban Development Sector Project will facilitate fully integrated and coordinated urban planning in Tonga, particularly for Nuku’alofa, which accounts for 34% of the national population and is home to 75% of those living in urban areas.
